Fiolee,This Could Work

Chapter 11 - Into the Water

The floor was creaking with every step Fiona took in Marshall's house. She took notice to the walls and the ceiling. Fiona was studying the whole house from a single seat in the kitchen. It was as if Fiona never really saw Marshall's house before.  

Marshall noticed how stiff Fiona was sitting. For some reason he couldn't stop staring at her. Partially because he thought that he might loose her and the fact that he might lose her was almost to much to bear. 

"Fi, how are you feeling?" Marshall asked ripping Fiona away from her thoughts. 

"Fine I guess. How am I supposed to feel?" She had a worried look in her eyes. 

"You should be feeling better very soon. Its good that you are up and walking around, but you shouldn't still be bleeding." Fiona got immediately tense. 

"I- I'm bleeding? How much? Is this hard for you?" Fiona was spitting out questions left and right. Marshall could tell that she wasn't worried about herself only his blood lust. 

"No Fi," Marshall said going over to the chair next to her, "I don't want your blood. Your blood now is well... its infected. You will be fine but there are certain things we have to do to make you healthy again. That's why I think you have this cut." 

"We have to figure out what is wrong with me, Marshall." Fiona said grabbing his hand nervously. "We have too." 

"Fiona," Marshall said standing up and bringing Fiona to her feet to give her a hug, "we will find away. I promise you this, only good will come out of it." With that Marshall leaned down and gave Fiona a kiss on her forehead.  

"Come you need to rest." Marshall said as he lead Fiona up to his room. The stairs posed a small challenge for Fiona as she was starting to get dizzy. Fiona wouldn't let Marshall help her she had to do this herself. Step by step she made it to the top of the stairs after that she was leaning on Marshall for support all the way to his bedroom.  

Marshall picked Fiona up and laid her in his bed once more and as he was about to leave her, 

"Marshall come lay with me," Fiona mumbled with her eyes still closed and head on his pillow. Marshall quickly floated over to Fiona an laid down next to her. Marshall moved in and put his arm around her waist, after a few minutes he could tell that Fi was asleep. Even though Marshall wasn't tired he thought that he could lay there like that forever just listening to the sound of her breathing and watching the rise and fall of her chest. After what felt like days of laying like this Marshall himself fell asleep with Fiona in his arms.

Fiona awoke the next night sleeping on Marshall's chest. She quickly realized that they weren't in the bed or even the bedroom anymore. But instead outside over the small lake that she had dumped Marshall into a few days earlier. She looked at Marshall wide eyed and awe struck.  

"Hey beautiful," he said with a smirk before turning on his side causing Fiona to fall in the water. 

"OH MY GLOB MARSHALL I AM SOAKING WET!"  

"Ya Fi that was kinda the point. I was only getting back at you." Marshall said as he picked her up by the waist. Fiona was struggling but relaxed as Marshall kissed her. 

"Oh my glob he is kissing me," She screamed in her head. 

"Wow, she is so hot," Marshall was thinking. But then it struck him, "Fiona is actually hot to the touch..." Marshall pulled away abruptly from their kiss. Fiona was shocked, naturally. 

"Fi you are really hot." Marshall sputtered out. 

"Oh haha thanks Marshall." Fiona was blushing a shade of pink.
